Home treatment includes:
cool showers or baths
avoid creams or lotions that can hold heat inside (oil based)
drink lots of fluids
motrin or tylenol for pain
see doctor if you have blistering
stay out of the sun
if you must go out, keep sunburned areas covered
you can use OTC preps designed specifically for sunburn (to numb the pain and remove redness such as Solarcaine or aloe gel)
The aloe vera gel will help a lot with the redness. If tanning results, there is no cure to get back the "fairness" as the tan must fade on its own.

Get something with aloe to help with the pain. Otherwise just time to heal will reduce the redness. And next time make sure you use sunscreen whenever you are out ~ it's not worth the risk of skin cancer later.

The best thing to do is stay out of the sun for awhile and use lots of lotions to keep the skin soft, so it doesn't get dry and scaly.
